Just then, his spiritual senses suddenly detected several people entering the large private room. Instantly, everyone in the previously lively room stood up and fell silent. It was the Premier! The Premier greeted everyone with a broad smile and then delivered an important speech.

Seeing this, Li Baolong realized it was a golden opportunity and quickly activated his mind control. His spiritual senses, like an invisible net, enveloped Ross's brain and imprinted his mark upon it, making future communication with Ross easier.

After marking himself, Li Baolong couldn't resist taking a look at Ross's situation. What he found was astonishing. Good heavens, Ross was truly wealthy, managing assets worth $50 billion. That Jess was actually his underling, also managing $20 billion. Behind these two was the Moore family, a long-established American financial tycoon with assets worth trillions of dollars.

Li Baolong also discovered that Ross had rampaged through the British financial system a few years ago, making billions of dollars and shocking the entire global futures industry. However, he also uncovered a massive secret. Ross and Jess were planning to short Southeast Asian stock index futures starting next February, aiming to cripple the economic development of Southeast Asia, including Hong Kong. They had planned to use $100 billion, leveraged twenty times, totaling $2 trillion—enough to sweep away the economies of Southeast Asian countries. Even China's economic strength would likely be hesitant to confront them head-on. These two were undeniably bold and decisive, but if their scheme succeeded, the consequences would be dire: global economic depression, countless job losses and business closures, and countless people homeless. Li Baolong, however, felt no qualms, as long as it didn't affect the Chinese economy.
